We have shared on previous podcasts that there were asylums that had sterilized patients without their knowledge and without their consent. Now, ratchet that up to doing mind-altering experiments on these patients without their knowledge or consent. That is the Allan Memorial Institute. This building had once been a home, but for a time it was like a prison. The atrocities that occurred here have left behind an immense amount of spiritual residue and this nearly always leads to paranormal activity.

Even Much More Spirits Of The Greenwood by Sasha Ende at Ende.com Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

No other actress has ever had the notoriety and fame or stirred the emotions quite like Marilyn Monroe. She was a legend in her own time and that legend has only grown since her untimely death. Not only was her rise to fame epic, but her personal life was a tale fit for the silver screen filled with torrid love affairs that included a president, drugs, scandal, tragedy, conspiracy and a mysterious death. Such a tumultuous life is hard to completely snuff out and perhaps Marilyn Monroe's spirit continues to live on in the afterlife. Not just in our memories, but as a spirit still walking among us. Join us for the life and afterlife of Marilyn Monroe.

Spring Grove Cemetery and Arboretum is located at 4521 Spring Grove Avenue in Cincinnati, Ohio.
